Description

In partnership with early childhood service providers and elementary school systems, the children's museum of the lowcountry will expand the reach of its programming to share its hands-on, play-based approach to stem education with targeted children and educators. The museum will create a power of play curriculum with lesson plans that reflect best practices and focus on play-based activities to teach stem concepts tied to grade level and state standards. The museum will train and support 40 teachers and educators from ten head start/first steps early childhood centers and ten title 1 elementary schools, and provide them with free POP up tinker shop (a museum on wheels) outreach visits. The trainings will build teacher confidence, promote best practices for play-based learning, support a community of practice, and enhance young learners' engagement, fascination, and attitude towards stem. The power of play curriculum will be published as a bound resource and shared with other children's museums and service providers.
